Recognizing Achievement Among Alumni, Faculty, Staff

The Bradley community excels whether in a public office, private industry or on campus. Joining approximately 200 members of the Centurion Society this year are the governor of Kansas and a top executive at business giant Amazon.

Laura Kelly ’71

The first Bradley graduate elected governor of a state, Kelly has served as governor of Kansas since 2019 after spending many years in the state Senate.

“As it turned out, what I had done is make the best decision of my life. It was because of my time at Bradley that I decided I wanted to devote my life to public service.” “I came down to Bradley sight unseen … But that started my story. I learned I had to mature and Bradley shaped that. This mid-major school punches above its weight.”

David Bozeman ’91

Vice president of Amazon Transportation Services since 2017 and a current Bradley trustee, Bozeman had executive roles with Caterpillar Inc. and Harley-Davidson Motor Company and was the 2007 Outstanding Young Graduate.
